Just imagine (like in the dormitory study) when all the
menstruating crew synchronize their cycles.

SSN PMS Illinois. Tomahawks away!!

This idea is ridiculous, and is of a design to place Academy grads into line command in areas they CANNOT match performance with males. The jobs do require physical upper body strength, in maintenance,fire control, and many other areas including combat. Stupid good ship lollipop thinking.

The Silent Service cannot remain silent on this...certainly they will no longer be silent on patrol.

It’s not a video game at 600 feet. Recall the “command” of one real dyke Lt. Commander of an Aegis Class ship— she was completely nuts. And retired early at full retirement-.
It continues.

Just wow at the foolishness. I assume they are going to have robots to do the heavy lifting.

I kept on looking for the satire tag on the article but couldn't find it. Yeah, I know in ordinary training you have to seal a leak in a compartment that is flooding with the water pouring in at high pressure. But since it is an all female crew, I guess they will just waive that requirement ( just as they did for the female marines that couldn't do one pull up ) .
